In the 21st century, farming is more than just good old fashioned manual labor. With new technology, the agricultural industry has been adapted to current times. One way you can utilize this new technology is by downloading some agriculture apps on your phone. If you aren’t sure where to start, don’t worry. We’ve created the following guide with some popular farming apps you may want to use. Keep reading to learn more and call RECO Equipment with any questions. We are proud to have locations in Ohio, Indiana, and Pennsylvania.

Tractor Manufacturer Apps

One agriculture app you should consider getting is one made by your tractor or other farm equipment’s manufacturer. These apps can make it easier to use your equipment and stay connected to the manufacturer. You’ll find relevant information to your model, tips for maintenance and general upkeep, and contact information for your manufacturer. Search online to see what kind of apps your tractor’s manufacturer has.

Climate and Weather Tracking

The weather plays a big role in your day to day work. Inclement weather can affect your ability to perform certain tasks on your farm. This is why we suggest downloading some sort of weather app. The app that comes with your phone can suffice, but we recommend having a few different options so you can get the most accurate report. This is a great tool to have for your farm.

General Organizational Apps

There’s a lot to do on your farm. A little organization can go a long way in helping you keep track of all of your important tasks. After all, your memory can only go so far. Pen and paper work great, but something more compact is more convenient. Using some sort of agriculture app can be helpful for organizing all of your various farming duties in one location. This includes marketing decisions, soil test results, crop yield, and other important information. 

Popular Names

If you want some more specific recommendations, we’ve created the following list with some popular agriculture apps.

  • Grower’s Edge: designed to make the business side of your farming operation easier and more efficient with farming news, rain reports, commodity quotes, and more.
  • AgWeb: everything in one place that helps you connect to radio shows and other agricultural outlets.
  • AgriSync: a great resource for new farmers looking for a way to get up and running with new equipment.
